Just looking to vent or get some advice :( I had a Mc at 6 weeks back In March. I was able to go through it completely natural, and once my period was back on track I started ttc (trying to conceive) again.. but no luck. It's been almost 6 months and I feel like I'm having no luck getting pregnant. I've tracked my fertile days and tried the opk. And still nothing. I'm so anxious and all I see are babies everywhere, so it breaks my heart. I'm so scared that I'm not able to get pregnant again. Is anyone in the same boat? :(

Hi Paige, I completely understand where you're coming from. We've been trying since January but last month I discovered I ovulate way earlier than predicted so feel like I've just wasted the last six months.

I was so sure we'd nailed it this month; had a consistently high basal, bit of spotting, all the niggles and feelings and then, this morning, basal drops and AF starts. A week early as well! So disappointed.

It's so draining month after month, especially when everyone else seems to be getting pregnant at the drop of a hat. You have my sympathy

Yes I'm in the same boat. MC February. Advised by doctor to stop ttc until they'd removed a cyst from my ovary (apr-jun)
Surrounded by unplanned pregnancies Sad

Totally understand how you feel! Just approaching the second year mark now and not even a sniff of a positive test.
Flowers sorry to hear about your mc Sad x

Totally know how I feel we have been trying since January a few months I thought it had happened but then af arrived early or arrived after lots of promising signs x x

I had a mmc at 11 weeks the week before Xmas and I've been ttc every month since and nothing! Big hugs for us all xx

I know exactly how you feel. It took me about 8 cycles to get pregnant, then I had a MC, then it took me 6 more. It's so hard and it sends you (well me anyway) a bit crazy and obsessed.

I had the kindara app to track then added in the fertility friend app and FF showed I was ovulating earlier/later than I was calculating myself. So though I was informed and tracking, I was still slightly off.

I also went for acupuncture both times before I got pregnant. It might seem crazy but I literally started it and then got pregnant . Different acupuncturists btw. But maybe it's just a coincidence and it was time for me.

I have my fingers crossed for you xx

Oh I know how you feel I've been TTC since September, had all checks at the Doctor, everything seems fine but still no baby?! There are now 4 women in my office who are pregnant! Fingers crossed for us all (flowers)

It's so hard, I know how it feels. It took up 18 month to conceive. As horrrendous as a mc is, it is at least proof that you are able to get pregnant. When we saw the GP, he said it just takes some people longer and no one knows why.

Started ttc March/April 2016. Chemicals in July and March. Depression setting in. The real kicker is that the only two people I'm close to to have fallen pregnant in that time were at the same time as my two chemicals!!!

I have regular pity parties.

Big hugs, we have been trying since February and no sniff of a bfp and we are doing all the right things too (bbt, opk, checking cm, bd at the right time...!). Its my boy's second birthday coming up and I keep bursting into tears at random times remembering what it was like to be pregnant/have a newborn in my arms and feel so sad that it hasn't happened yet. Also surrounded by unplanned pregnancies and other pregnancy announcements...

NeverGoOutOfStyle · 19/07/2017 11:42

Totally understand how you feel, I had a miscarriage a year ago and we've been trying since and nothing! it's so frustrating.

paigeleeforever182 · 19/07/2017 20:28

Thank you all! It honestly makes me feel a little better to see that I'm not alone in this. Hoping we all get our BFP soon!!
